Re: Working for a beekeeper

Re: Working for a beekeeper

I would inquire with ads, you may be suprised. There are many large beekeepers that pay well. ie foreman making 50 to 75k.
Out in Ca wages are a little higher we start @ 10.00 going upto $18. now in Idaho & utah its 8 to 13 an hr.

Re: Working for a beekeeper

Just remember if you have a back problem or a week one better build yourself up. It is hard work your not just working with 20 hives a day fast pace and hard work. Easier said than done. Sure some folks on this site can vouch for that. California 75k ain't that much lived and worked there for a yr in 1999. Beautiful state and so much to do you will never get bored. If your young go for it live life while your young .When you get older it doesn't have that same appeal.
